EPISODE 13
Hello. I'm Seo Dal-mi.
What are you doing here?
SEO DAL-MI
I'm here for a job interview.
What the hell are you doing?
I'd like to apply to Injae Company's Strategic Planning Team.
Ms. Won In-jae.
-Ms. Won? -Seriously?
Then tell me why you want to work at my company.
Okay.
What you said on Demo Day
left a deep impression on me.
What did I say?
The same goes for our children and descendants.
They, too, would want the world to change
for the better.
I wish to make the world a better place. That's why I'm doing this.
Why did it leave a deep impression on you?
Because it's the same thing
Dad said 15 years ago.
"Dad"?
You see,
I can picture how the world will change in the future.
Drastic changes are coming.
You know,
I didn't quit because someone punched me.
I quit my job to prepare for such a world.
So in that moment, it suddenly hit me.
That maybe
you and I
have the same goal.
Of course, I don't like that you're focused on manpower reduction.
That is the first thing I'd like to change should you hire me.
-You're brazen. -I'll take that as a compliment.
Seo Dal-mi, the former CEO of Samsan Tech,
has joined Injae Company as the company's new COO.
NoonGil, the app developed by Samsan Tech during Sand Box's 12th residency program,
continues to expand its services even after the acquisition.
The new update contains a feature that helps users identify different pills.
CHEONG-MYEONG CORN DOG
After turning its largest profit last quarter, Injae Company
is incorporating
its new business development team as a separate company.
-Congratulations. -Look over here!
Seo Dal-mi, the former team lead,
will serve as the CEO of this new company, named Cheongmyeong.
NoonGil, 2STO's app for the visually impaired,
has been acquired by the world's top private foundation.
The CEO of K. Jonse deeply empathizes with the vision and objectives of NoonGil
and has promised ongoing support and continual investment in its R&D.
Sand Box's partner, Morning Group,
founded the biggest AI center in Korea.
The company restructured its two-year-old AI task force
and hired more engineers to expand the team for this AI center,
which will be headed by Won Sang-su, the CEO of Nature Morning.
They say Fifan Tech is valued at 15 billion.
Who's the keyman there?
Congratulations on your promotion!
The development team led by Nam Do-san, former CTO of Samsan Tech,
has been named the key department at 2STO's AI Center.
The team has been recognized
for its contribution to the Smart City project in Silicon Valley.
I think his contract
was for three years or something like that.
-Yes. -But since he's doing so well,
2STO won't let him go. I guess he won't come back.
I hope that is the case.
3 YEARS LATER, SAN FRANCISCO
This wine smells amazing.
How's the wine?
I bought it after tasting it during a winery tour in Napa Valley.
Great purchase.
It's very smooth, and I barely taste any tannin.
Just how I like it.
Look at you, hotshot.
Gosh, it seems like only yesterday that we were
eating gimbap on the roof while smelling barbecue.
Gosh, I know.
Hold on. Come to think of it, we never got to eat
at that BBQ restaurant.
Right, we used to smell the food all the time but never ate there.
I should be a good son for a change.
I should show my parents this yacht in San Francisco.
Hey, don't. It's 4 a.m. in Korea now.
Really? Okay.
Then I should do a vlog.
Both Seoul and San Francisco's latitude is 37° N.
It's almost the same.
The difference in longitude is the reason why we're 16 hours behind here,
but it's so peaceful here that it's almost hard to believe
-we share the same sky. -Action.
-Let's begin. -Looking back,
every day there felt like a war.
-What am I doing here? -I was wounded every day.
Do-san, our captain. How's the sea looking today?
Not a single cloud, and the sea is very calm today.
A PLACE WHERE ONE FEELS SAFE AND AT EASE
Yes, what time would be good to meet for the shoot?
Sure, then I'll see you at two.
Okay, I'm going.
BIG CORPORATIONS COMPETE TO RECRUIT DEVELOPERS
Ms. Won, we're shooting the company promo video today.
Yes, I remember. Is the crew here?
Yes, they're in the meeting room now.
Oh, you're back from lunch.
-Yes. -Where did you go for lunch?
Do we have to tell you?
Well, I thought I saw you guys earlier.
We ate at the cafeteria at Sand Box.
Really?
I guess I was mistaken.
Let's go. We're shooting the promo video.
We're busy.
Okay.
Was it Studio Jakdu?
Can I see their portfolio first?
Do you have to see it?
Yes.
Is this their actual portfolio?
What if our video turns out like this?
What's wrong with this?
This video has reached one million views.
Don't tell me this is what we're going for.
No. Ours will be much better, of course.
Ms. Won, we're ready. Shall we?
Can we go over the concept first?
We took inspiration from Frozen.
I'm not doing this.
Nice. That's refreshing.
Then, are we playing
Elsa and Anna?
Bingo. That's the idea.
Ms. Won, you know that hand gesture Elsa makes, right?
I need you to do that and make it look more dramatic.
-Hand gesture? -Yes, she does this.
As if you're snapping your fingers. Got it?
No!
No, you can do it!
You can do it.
Ms. Won, are you ready?
Are we really doing this?
All right. Please look at the camera.
Let's do this.
Ready, cue!
Hello. I'm Won In-jae, the CEO of Injae Company, the company that aims
to change the paradigm of control systems through AI.
EARNEST
Hello. I'm Won In-jae, the CEO of Injae Company, the company that aims
to change the paradigm of control systems through AI.
In the past three years, we've been ranked fifth
for best-selling CCTV systems using AI and have been named
the fastest-growing company in the industry.
Companies such as Jeonghan Bank, Jeonghan Construction,
Taeram Construction, World Oil, and so on
use our control and monitoring systems.
Our goal is to expand
and strengthen security controls, not reduce manpower.
And we've built an effective, expansive system for it.
With the know-how gained from developing our CCTV monitoring system,
we are now investing in a new business project.
And that project is…
A self-driving system.
SELF-DRIVING SYSTEM
Hello. I'm Seo Dal-mi, the CEO of Cheongmyeong Company,
a self-driving car start-up.
A world where the elderly or the visually impaired can be more mobile.
Every year, the number of traffic-related deaths…
-Are you all right? -Gosh, seriously.
Ms. Seo, why grab the steering wheel?
She doesn't trust us.
Gosh, I do trust you. But you know,
there's a thing called automatic reflexes.
That was totally involuntary.
Jeez.
Sorry. I'll do better this time.
Do we have to start over?
No, I can edit it. Let's just pick up where we left off.
-Are you ready? -Yes.
All right. Ready, cue!
Every year, 1,2 million people die from traffic accidents.
To more quickly welcome such a world, Injae Company
began developing a self-driving system last year using our vision technology
with the goal of reaching level four.
She's actually doing this.
Right? She's launching a self-driving system.
At her sister's company. Her enemy.
I wonder if Do-san has watched this video.
-What video? -Oh, it's nothing.
Cheon-ho made a promo video.
-Okay. -With Ms. Seo in it.
Really?
Looks like she's launched a self-driving car start-up.
Do you want to see it?
No.
Hey, why did you have to bring that up?
Have you heard him talk about her since moving here?
-No, right? -Right, never.
Not even once.
So don't bring her up.
Don't throw a pebble into a calm lake.
Have you seen Chul-san's vlog?
No. Does Chul-san have his own channel now?
Yes, I think a lot of people watch it.
2STO, Silicon Valley, San Francisco.
It's pretty cool, you know.
Do you want the link? Do-san appears in his videos sometimes.
No, it's okay.
I'm busy with getting the permit for our self-driving system.
Let's do another test shoot next time.
Sounds good.
Don't rub your eyes after touching dirt.
That's dirty.
Gosh, look how dirty this is.
Oh, there's a puppy!
That little rascal.
We have to cancel the hotel staycation
for this Chuseok.
This lawsuit I'm working on is intense.
Are you the only one with a job? I work too.
Just go with your friends.
Take them out for nice meals with my credit card.
I make money too, you know.
What do you want me to do, then?
Forget it. Let's break up.
Hey, over here.
-Where's Yu-jeong? -She's playing with a puppy over there.
How about a hotel staycation this Chuseok?
Yu-jeong's dad can look after her.
Aren't you going with your boyfriend?
-I broke up with him just now. -Again?
You can never get past three months.
CHUL-SAN ICED VANILLA LATTE LOVER
A VACATION AFTER 3 YEARS
Today, I'm neither at work nor at home.
Let's get this vlog started on this yacht.
What am I doing here?
2STO rewarded us with a vacation
for working hard and successfully completing the project.
For a month. One full month.
Applause! Applause, please.
So we're sailing together now.
You know, Yong-san has been working out since moving to Silicon Valley.
He's been going to the gym at work every single day.
-What are you reading? -The book I couldn't finish.
-Is it good? -Yes.
-Look, his abs! -Hey!
You're a freak.
Sorry, I'll show you next time.
Now, allow me to introduce the real freak who brought laptop here
to write code.
Do-san, our captain. How's the sea looking today?
Not a single cloud, and the sea is very calm today.
Freak.
-Oh, boy. -But seriously, what a gorgeous day.
Be it the path you've never been on or a road where you can't see a thing
due to fog or rain.
A world where you are not afraid to go or drive anywhere.
We will create such a world.
What time do you get off? Want to grab dinner?
With who?
"Dal-mi"?
Hey, you can't address her like that.
Call her Ms. Seo.
You met her through work, so don't cross the line.
I tried to feel her out,
and she's not interested in you.
What did she say?
She doesn't like your small hands.
She likes men with big hands.
The hands?
That's her type?
Why keep trying?
These days, giving up right away
is considered good manners.
Stop hitting on her, please.
You're going to ruin everything.
Hello? Hey!
Gosh, this prick. What is the matter with him?
What was that about?
Ms. Seo is applying for the temporary permit for her self-driving car.
What about it?
She needed a certificate of insurance,
so I put her in touch with a friend of mine who has previous experience
with the same kind of insurance,
but he's going on about her because he's interested in her.
I had good intentions but…
Director Han!
What's covered?
Any kind of damage caused by defects
or automotive hacking is covered.
CAR INSURANCE APPLICATION
It'll be done by next week, right?
For you, I'll make sure it'll be done this week.
-Okay, thank you-- -In return,
buy me dinner today.
Sorry?
I was just kidding.
I'll buy you dinner.
Sorry, I have plans this evening.
What kind of plan?
Why does he keep speaking so casually?
Chuseok is coming up,
so I have to make songpyeon.
I love songpyeon.
Can I go have some?
-Look. -What?
I'll make some for you. I'd love to make songpyeon at your place.
Let's go.
What are you doing?
My gosh, you have such petite hands.
Very cute.
Oh, you know what?
I actually don't love songpyeon. I don't like eating carbs.
What about meat fritters?
I make mean meat fritters.
Where are you going? It's this way.
Meat fritters!
I guess I have big hands.
He doesn't want to eat the songpyeon that I make.
Why don't you come over if you're free today?
-What? -You always come over on the holidays
and eat all the food. Don't you feel bad?
Come over and help us.
You never lift a finger but eat all the food.
But I prefer to lift a toe…
Sorry.
SEO DAL-MI
What's up?
I'm not calling about work.
-Have you left the office? -No, not yet. What's up?
Well, we're preparing all the food for Chuseok today.
Want to come over?
-I'm busy. -Then what about Chuseok?
Are you going to spend the day alone? Won't you be bored?
I'm too busy to get bored.
Jeez.
-Is it good? -Yes, it's so good.
In-jae can't come, right?
I mean, she won't come.
I know her schedule. She's really busy these days.
-Shall we get started? -Okay.
Hey, Good Boy. Do you know how to make songpyeon?
No, teach me! I learn everything fast.
I'll show you.
This much would do.
This much? This is fun.
-It's easy. -I see.
I think yours is too small.
And close it up all the way.
-Like this. -I think he got it.
Right here.
-Mom, is it going well? -Close it up like this.
-I see. -Then go over it again.
-I should be more thorough. -Yes.
-After that-- -Is this how it's supposed to look?
-Oh, Grandma. -What?
I have to say, Dal-mi is also… She's good, right?
-She's so good. -She sure is my daughter.
-Let me taste one. -Here.
It's hot!
-Gosh, be careful. I got it. -It's very hot.
-It's so hot! -My gosh!
That felt like burning lava.
I don't see any good cards.
If you have nothing, remember this order. December, October, May, November…
We can hear you, you know. You can't give her pointers.
-That is not allowed. -Seriously.
The loser has to make all the skewers.
Okay, my turn.
-A matching card! -A matching card?
-Give up a card each. Hey! -Gosh.
-Come on. -Hurry.
Ms. Choi, why are you so excited?
Is Good Boy asleep?
He should just sleep here.
All right. It's chilly, so bring a blanket and--
I already did, Grandma.
Pack him some food for when he leaves tomorrow.
He likes zucchini fritters, so give him a lot of those.
I'm already packing them up for him.
Grandma, aren't you going to church tomorrow?
Yes, why do you ask?
When you're there, can you pray for me as well?
For you? Why?
Our self-driving car, Tarzan, will soon be tested
for the temporary permit.
Tarzan? What kind of test?
Oh, Tarzan is the name of the self-driving car my company developed.
It needs a driving license before it can drive on the roads.
The test for that is next month.
So please pray that it will pass the test with flying colors.
Gosh, it's so complicated.
Mother, I wrote everything down.
Let's pray together.
-Grandma. -Yes.
You have to pray with all your heart.
So I can take you on a cross-country tour in our self-driving car later.
That's okay. I've traveled enough.
-Did you pack everything? -I just need a container now.
Okay, great.
Carrot, green onion…
What are you doing?
You woke up?
I have to finish this but fell asleep.
Just leave it. I can finish it.
I can't allow that.
I always do my best and concede when I lose.
I'm very precise like that.
Also, I should earn my keep.
You already have.
Thanks to you, my grandma stayed up pretty late today.
Does she still sleep a lot?
Yes.
Has she seen a doctor?
She has, but the doctor said nothing's wrong with her.
She's been sleeping a lot since closing her corn dog business,
so it must be psychological.
She worked all her life, so maybe this change is making her feel lost.
Maybe I should open a shop for her.
Would you
let me do that for her?
No, why would you do that?
I should do it for her.
Do I still make you uncomfortable?
I wish you wouldn't feel like that around me anymore.
I want to be the person that comes to mind when life gets tough.
I do think of you, of course.
I want to be the first person.
Gosh, stop eating.
Don't just eat carrots if you want to munch on something.
BOOK NEW FLIGHTS
-Hey, Yong-san. -What's up?
I'm going to book our flights to Korea. When do you want to return?
I'll come back with you.
Are you booking mine too?
Yours? Do you want to go to Korea?
I should. It's been a while since we had such a long vacation.
What?
You never went back when you took time off before. Why now?
I just want to see how my parents are doing.
What? Then why don't you
call them often like we do?
Why act like a caring son all of a sudden?
When do you want to come back?
I'll come back with you guys.
Yeong-sil, the weather.
Here's your fortune for today.
Okay, here we go again.
You are a faint-hearted batter.
Nice one. It's something different today.
Did you have an update?
Afraid of being called out, you are unable to even swing your bat.
But if you continue to hesitate, you will lose.
Do you know something?
So be brave and just swing the bat.
You could be called out, but you also may hit a home run.
Two outs in the bottom of the ninth and a full count.
It's time you stepped up your game.
A good ball is coming your way.
Swing your bat with all your might.
Guys.
Did you get the email from 2STO about the better vesting deal?
Yes, I read it.
What's 2STO's stock price now? Have you done the math?
I sure have.
It's enough to buy an apartment by the Han River.
"Your three-year contract is over,
but 2STO would like to keep top talent like you guys."
I can sense their strong determination from this new offer.
This is probably what FA's top free agents go through.
That's right.
Hey! You're on vacation now. Put that away.
Yes. Should we buy an apartment by the Han River in Seoul
or a studio overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco?
Let's talk about it.
I'll just follow your decision.
Did you forget?
We said we'll always decide
by a show of hands and do everything together.
So keep that in mind and tell us what you think.
Let me think about it first.
GUIDE FOR SELF-DRIVING CAR TEMPORARY OPERATION PERMIT
I see an empty desk over there.
That's the new hire's desk.
I guess they're running late.
Something came up. I told them to work from home.
The demo is just around the corner. They're going to work remotely?
Yes.
Why? Do you have a problem with that?
No, but…
CHEONGMYEONG COMPANY
How much have we spent on making that car?
A little over 600 million won.
"A little"? No. It's a lot more than that.
The developers' wages and the patent--
If you include those expenses as well, it's definitely more than that.
With all the fixed and indirect expenses--
It's more than two billion.
If we fail to get the permit, we'll have to spend that much again.
Trying to pressure me?
No, I'm earnestly asking you not to make a mistake.
Okay.
Darn it. I don't have time.
Hey, button. Hang in there just until the end of the day.
My dear subscribers, what do you think?
It looks pretty spooky here, doesn't it?
A haunted house? No, no. This isn't a haunted house tour.
This is where we worked before joining 2STO.
This is where Samsan Tech began.
It's a historic place for us,
so I wanted to livestream from here.
We moved out of this space three years ago.
-But no one's wanted to rent it out. -My goodness.
It means we started out in an awfully tough environment.
I might tear up.
Yes, me too.
There's a BBQ restaurant downstairs.
Inhaling the smoke traveling from downstairs,
we ate gimbap all the time.
That's when we told ourselves this. "When we make money,
let's go there and eat meat instead of just inhaling the smoke."
-And that's happening today! -Today!
All right, guys. We're off to stuff our faces with some beef.
-We're so hungry. -I'm starving.
All right, guys. Don't forget to subscribe, like…
And hit the notification bell.
-Please! Bye! -Please! Bye!
Hey, this isn't beef tartare. Wait until it's cooked.
It's cooked.
This is the premium beef that just melts in your mouth.
Yes, it is good.
But isn't it disappointing because it smelled so good?
-Oh, then I'll eat them all. -No, I can't let you do that.
-Shall I ask Do-san to join us? -I already called him.
He said he has plans.
-What? What's he up to? -No idea.
"I thought it'd look good on you."
Then she'll ask me what this means.
"Nothing.
I just like to collect shiny things."
What? Are you a crow or something?
"Do you have to know what this means?"
No, that's like picking a fight.
"What does it mean? Let me think.
Well…
It has a meaning, of course.
Please accept my heart. That's what it means."
I almost made myself vomit.
Gosh, forget it. What the heck am I doing now?
You are a faint-hearted batter.
Afraid of being called out, you are unable to even swing your bat.
But if you continue to hesitate, you will lose.
Mr. Han.
Yes. You took the self-driving test last month, right?
Congratulations.
We're actually taking the test next month as well.
Would you be able to email me the scenario from the test?
I won't share it with anyone.
Right, I understand. Thank you.
So it's a no?
Right. It's confidential, so they can't send it.
-Where are you going? -I'll go there and see it.
That's not leaking info.
-Is that really necessary? -I have to.
What are you doing here?
2STO gave us some time off.
I see. That means you're not back for good.
Right.
You look great.
You too, Mr. Han.
I'm a director now.
I see. You got a promotion.
Congratulations, Director Han.
Looks like you bought a gift for someone.
Oh, this. Yes.
So be brave and just swing the bat.
You could be called out, but you also may hit a home run.
I got this for Ms. Seo.
I wanted to get her a little gift in return for all she's done for me.
I see.
Do you want to go see her?
Her office has changed a lot.
No, that's okay. I have an appointment.
All right, then.
I forgot my car keys.
Is Ms. Seo not in the office?
She stepped out for a meeting. Can we help you?
It's okay. I'll come back another time.
Gosh, what's wrong with my computer?
What's going on?
I keep getting disconnected, and it's very slow.
Scoot over.
I WANT TO BECOME AN INSPIRING WOMAN
I WANT TO TURN A MISUNDERSTANDING INTO REALITY
It's just for an hour.
Please pretend to be the person in the letters.
We must succeed to make sure Dal-mi won't be disappointed.
Do-san.
You're not the Do-san from the letters.
I got this for Ms. Seo.
I WANT TO TURN A MISUNDERSTANDING INTO REALITY
Do-san.
Do-san!
Sorry. I'm really sorry.
You spilled your coffee.
That's okay, but your blouse…
This is totally fine. I'm sorry again.
Sorry.
I'm really sorry.
I must be losing my mind.
Why look for a guy who's in the US now?
Gosh, I can't go to the meeting looking like this.
Hello? Yes, I'm at Sand Box now.
What's up?
What? What did you say?
Thank you.
Thanks, Chul-san. That was a good meal.
I have to say, this restaurant is very expensive.
Hey, we're now successful enough to dine at such an expensive restaurant.
I know, right?
What? Sa-ha?
Chul-san? Yong-san?
What are you guys doing here? I thought you were in the US.
We're here on vacation.
What are you doing here?
I had drinks with my friends in the area.
My gosh. What a crazy coincidence.
I know. What's the likelihood of something like this happening?
Very slim! Seoul is a huge city.
We arrived in Korea and came here for a barbecue.
And just as we were leaving… It's 9:11 p.m. now.
The chances of you passing by here right at 9:11 p.m.
Winning the lottery would be easier than this.
All sorts of odd things can happen in life, you know.
Anyway, are you waiting for someone?
I drank, so I'm waiting for my relief driver.
Oh, Chul-san. Why don't you drive her home?
You didn't drink at all.
But she already called a driver.
No, not yet.
Really? No, I mean…
Then shall I drive you home?
Well, sure.
Well…
Did you manage to treat your insomnia?
Yes, thanks to you.
I'm glad to hear that.
You were very worried about your English.
How is it now? Better?
My English? Well, you know. I'd say it's so-so…
No, it's bad.
I don't say a thing in my office at 2STO.
It's like I'm in silent meditation every day.
I'd love intensive tutoring sessions.
When do you go back?
Me? In about ten days? I think I have ten days left.
Then how about I tutor you until you leave?
-Seriously? -Look ahead, will you?
Right, of course. I should look ahead while driving.
Gosh, I'd love that. I mean, I'd be so grateful.
-When's good for you? -Anytime.
Whenever works for you.
Really? Then…
PUNK
"Punk"?
-It's Ms. Seo. -Oh!
-Answer it. -Is today a special day or something?
-Hello? -Hey, Sa-ha.
It's me, Seo Dal-mi.
Our solution has been attacked by ransomware.
All the files are encrypted now.
What do they want?
If we don't send 300 million won in 12 hours,
they'll destroy the decryption key.
If that happens, we'll lose all the files.
Did you call the police?
Yes, but they said they can't take care of it now.
You mentioned that you had worked on a ransomware case in the past.
Do you know of any IT security experts?
I'll ask around and call you back.
Okay, thanks.
Hey, it's me.
Can you reach your IT security manager
who removed the ransomware?
Okay, let me know.
Isn't hacking covered by that insurance?
Only automotive hacking, not this.
Gosh, this is crazy.
-No calls yet, right? -That's right.
This key is too long. It'll be difficult to solve it.
This will take a few days.
Ms. Seo.
Just send them the ransom and get the decryption key.
Then we can restore the files.
Who knows? They may not give us the key.
Ms. Seo, what should we do?
They'll double the amount if we don't send the money now.
They'll double it? So, 600 million won?
This is insane.
Think about it, Ms. Seo.
We've spent two billion for this algorithm and the car.
300 million isn't bad.
Yes. Send the money now and get the decryption key.
All our cash is tied up
in our new business projects. What do we do?
It's okay. I can get this sorted out.
Hello? This is Seo Dal-mi.
I'm sorry for calling so late.
We're dealing with a ransomware attack at the moment.
Yes, okay.
Please let them know that they can call me even later at night.
Thank you.
Yes, IT security experts or even white hat hackers.
Okay, thank you.
I can do this.
I can get this sorted out.
DIRECTOR HAN JI-PYEONG
I want to be the person that comes to mind when life gets tough.
The first person.
DIRECTOR HAN JI-PYEONG
Hello? Seo Dal-mi speaking.
Are you Taeram Construction's IT security manager?
Dal-mi.
It's me, Do-san.
Where are you?
Dal-mi.
What?
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
Where are you?
This is a domestic number.
I'll come now.
I said I'm fine.
Why would you come here?
Sa-ha told me everything.
You're at work, right?
I can get there in 20 minutes, so don't worry. Just wait for me.
Okay.
-Do-san. -Did you leave the port open?
What?
What the hell are you doing?
Our new developer left port 22 open
because he had to work from home.
That's when we got infected.
-Ms. Seo. -Is everything backed up?
Hey, it's none of your business.
We were in a rush, so we couldn't back up the files.
You really should have.
Is it that hard to sync files between two servers?
Are the files backed up?
What's going on?
They got in through the port that was open to connect to SSH.
Nothing's backed up.
Why not? You should always back up all the files.
Chul-san, check the session log and the system log.
Check for any external IP addresses.
You got it.
What happened?
Ask later. Let's get this sorted out first.
Check for suspicious files on the scheduler.
Okay.
Hey, I combed through the library.
A suspicious file was executed three hours ago,
but that file is gone now.
It must've been deleted.
It was stopped halfway through. I bet the defender quarantined it.
Send it over if you find it.
-Okay. -Got it.
Why does this feel like déjà vu?
This looks familiar.
Of course, it does.
You saved me when I almost had to deal with a ransomware attack six years ago.
Exactly. The character strings look similar.
Is it the same person?
-No way. -Found it.
It was in the isolated storage.
I found the decryption key.
Seriously?
Done.
The decryption key works.
Thank God.
All the files will be restored in about 30 minutes, give or take.
Really?
Thank goodness.
-Are you okay? -My gosh.
Yes, I'm fine.
Dal-mi, I got you.
I'll go get some water.
Water? It's right there. Hey!
Thanks.
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine. It's just because I'm so relieved now.
When did you come back?
About a week ago.
I see.
Are you back for good?
No, just for vacation.
I see, vacation.
Then when do you go back?
Next week.
Oh, I was very worried about NoonGil.
Thanks.
I heard it was acquired by a highly acclaimed foundation.
-Was it K. Jonse? -Yes.
I met them at a networking event,
and they deeply empathized with NoonGil's vision.
That's so impressive.
You met such famous people.
It must've been nice.
Yes.
It is nice,
but that's why it's boring.
Why did I have to run into him when I look like this?
Why? You still look the same.
"The same"?
Right.
I'm always such a hot mess, who's all over the place.
That's not what I meant.
Thanks so much for everything today.
Thank you.
I hadn't felt that thrill
in a long time.
This is unacceptable.
The test is coming up. What are we going to do
without two lead developers?
Wait, Hyeon. Hyeon!
The phone is turned off. You will be directed…
Jeong's phone is off too.
How many days do we have left?
Dong-cheon. Park Dong-cheon.
Did someone get hacked? I saw the IT security team.
Ms. Won and Ms. Seo called them.
Cheongmyeong Company
had to deal with a ransomware attack last night.
They stayed up all night and contacted security teams…
It's okay. Don't take it to heart. He didn't ignore me.
He's always like that.
Anyway, where were we?
-Where were we? -The meal allowance.
Right. If you go to the cafeteria upstairs…
I should've worn a different blouse.
Dal-mi.
I mean, Ms. Seo. What happened?
You had a ransomware attack?
It's all good now.
We found the decryption key and got all the files restored.
How?
Do-san was here.
Chul-san, Sa-ha, and Yong-san too.
They all came to help me.
So it's all been sorted out now?
Yes.
I'm glad.
I feel so much better now.
This was what I missed the most when we were in the US.
-More than the rib eye? -A million times more.
By the way, it looks like Shin Hyeon and Shin Jeong are quitting.
What? Why?
How dare they?
I can't believe they're quitting when they couldn't prevent the attack.
The test is just around the corner. I'm worried.
Hey, come out for a second.
Oh, boy.
Let's stop worrying about others and vote already.
-For what? -What do you think?
We should decide where to buy property.
Overlooking the Han River or in San Francisco?
No, not about that.
Are we going to accept 2STO's offer and stay in the US
or give up the vesting deal and move back for good?
What?
The past few days have taught me something.
San Francisco has clean air and great weather. It's all great,
but I find that city a little boring.
Coming back here
has made me realize that I like the thrill.
So you want to move back to Korea for good?
I will go back to San Francisco if that's what you guys want.
But let me ask you, Do-san.
Do you want to go back or stay here?
You have the casting vote.
Why Do-san?
Because I want to stay and you want to go back.
That's one to one. So Do-san has the casting vote--
I never said that.
I want to stay too, so that's two to one.
Your vote doesn't even count, so just stay.
It's not like you guys wanted to go to the US.
You were forced to go because of me.
Thanks for not resenting me.
What are you talking about? Go away.
-Did you finish all the food? -Yes.
Then hurry back to Sand Box.
Your jacket is at Ms. Seo's office.
You prick, why didn't you tell me earlier?
As if.
Hey.
It was three to zero anyway.
I WANT TO LAUNCH MY START-UP BECAUSE
I WANT TO TURN A MISUNDERSTANDING INTO REALITY
Have you opened the music box?
-Yes. -What did it sound like?
It was
unbelievably
wonderful.
Wait, Dal-mi.
What do you like about me?
No?
You said you guys are preparing to start a company.
Right.
That was actually--
What she meant by that was we'll be working together.
You have nice, big hands.
Let's talk.
It's very close. You didn't have to drive me, you know.
I should do these things for you when I'm here.
Are you taking driving lessons?
Yes, I started yesterday.
Then drive me to the airport
with this car when I leave.
Okay, I'll try my best.
That friend of yours. Was her name Dal-mi?
Did you have a chance to see her?
No.
-You don't want to see her? -No.
LEE CHUL-SAN
Hey, what's up?
Hey, Do-san. I'm with Sa-ha now.
What? You met her?
Yes. Anyway, Ms. Seo just called her.
They're dealing with a bad ransomware attack just before their test.
It sounds very stressful. How much was it again?
Three hundred million won.
The decryption key will be destroyed if they don't send the money.
-Where's Dal-mi now? -At her office, I guess.
I'm headed there now,
but I can't do this by myself. Can you come now?
-Mom, I should go help them out. -Okay, no problem.
-Hurry. -Okay, I'm sorry.
Don't worry. You should hurry.
DAL-MI
Hello? Seo Dal-mi speaking.
Are you Taeram Construction's IT security manager?
Dal-mi.
It's me, Do-san.
Where are you?
Dal-mi.
Are you all right?
I'll come now.
Why is this so hard?
Out of my 30 years of life, we only spent a few months together.
Why is it so hard to forget you?
-Is this a threat? -No. I'm giving you a chance.
I should give you advice,
but I'm too personally involved.
The Tarzan story you told me…
It was fascinating.
I don't want to be confused anymore.
I don't want to see you again.
